Preparation

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350
In a large mixing bowl cream the butter, oil, and sugars until light and fluffy. Add egg, vanilla, and salt and mix well. Add soda, oats, and flour just until incorporated. Stir in chocolate chips. Spread dough into a greased 9x13" pan. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden on the edges. Let cool completely.

In a mixing bowl, beat together butter, sugar, salt, vanilla, and 2 Tbs milk. If too thick add more milk 1 Tbs at a time until desired consistency is reached.
Step 3
Cut cooled bars into 24 squares, then cut each square in half, horizontally, as shown in the picture above. Spread a generous layer of cream onto half of the bars on the cut side. Top with remaining bars, cut side down. Store in a sealed container.
